Our guide didn't show us Matera: they told us its story, the way you tell the story of a family home. We went in as tourists and came out feeling a little Materese.

La Casa Grotta takes your breath away. In five minutes, you understand how people used to live here, and you never forget it. All entrance fees included, zero hassle.

The perfect pace, never in a hurry. The late afternoon light on Monte Caveoso alone is worth the trip to Basilicata.

We had the kids with us and I was worried they’d get bored. Instead, they were hanging on the guide’s every word. Authentic experience, very fair price.

We tell the story of Matera because it is our home

We are not guides who have come from elsewhere. We were born in these alleys, played on the steps of the Sassi, and listened to the stories of our grandparents, who truly lived in these caves.

This is why every tour is a personal story, not a lesson learned by heart: we take you behind the scenes of the city, to the corners that tour guides do not know.

“The stone here is not a monument. It is living memory. Our craft is simply to give it a voice.”
